<< But, as I said above, I wonder if extremely precise use of FM (or
AM) might yield some similar timbres to what you're after. In my previous
experiments with one VCO modulating a second which then modulates the first,
I've gotten many interesting timbres including lots of non-harmonic
overtones, but I've found that I can only use these voices over a very
limited range since every error is multiplied and becomes profound rather
quickly. >>



john,
yes, audio rate am or fm, plain linear or through zero should work nicely
here.
i like messing around with 3 vco`s in a loop - again, the limited range
overall but some great complex noises are in there !
best,
